A civic group has called on the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) to explain the circumstances behind two of its officials being charged with money laundering and conspiracy in relation to a group of property brokers selling land belonging to the Klongchan Credit Union Cooperative (KCUC).

Atchariya Rueangratanapong, head of the Help Crime Victim Club, yesterday submitted a petition calling on the DSI to proceed with punishment under the Criminal Code against those who had allegedly received ill-gotten gains and to investigate whether more people were involved. But he expressed doubts over the DSI’s apparent hesitation in taking disciplinary action against the pair over incidents that occurred years before but had only recently come to light.
DSI special case division head Pol Major Woranan Srilam said a disciplinary investigation would be launched after the unnamed officials were informed of the charges and suspended. The pair were accused of receiving between Bt20 million and Bt40 million, paid indirectly to their bank accounts, from the sale of the KCUC’s land to Phitsanulok Ethanol Co.
